By the way, if anyone is interested in adding flex_string to boost :o), I have recently updated the code and reached a design and implementation I'm very happy with.
Will you be interested in submitting it?
There is going to be a fixed string review soon. Common base for/cooperation in between fixed and dynamic string would be really interesting discussion.
Interesting. flex_string does have a fixed size policy - one that is buggy for strings with size greater than 254 :o). So yes, I'd say, if there is a fixed string being submitted, why not complement (or actually bundle) with that a design that allows a variety of strings, including fixed. Limited time is always an issue to me, but if anyone wants to take the initiative of writing the docs, I would be glad to help with bugs and discussion for improvements. I've added Reece to the recipient list. On the other hand, I'd totally understand if he wouldn't care for the aggravation; heck, if I wrote a lib, I'd be glad to see it in and be done with it :o). On a yet another hand, I think flex_string would add value to the submission. Andrei
